Crashes at railway level crossings continue to cause significant trauma across Australia. Despite being a longstanding safety problem, the design and operation of level crossings has not changed considerably for decades. This research will provide an in-depth understanding of road user, environmental and infrastructure-related factors that influence safety and performance at rail level crossings. This will be used to develop a world-first model of the level crossing system that is needed to support the development of innovative countermeasures that will improve safety. Reductions in the levels of significant trauma at level crossings, and new public policy for level crossing upgrades, are the intended real-world outcomes.

在铁路级别的撞车事故继续造成澳大利亚的重大创伤。尽管是一个长期存在的安全问题，但数十年来，水平穿越的设计和操作并没有发生很大变化。这项研究将对影响铁路交叉路口的安全性和性能的道路使用者，环境和基础设施相关的因素提供深入的了解。这将用于开发一个水平交叉系统的世界优先模型，该模型需要支持可以提高安全性的创新对策的开发。预定的现实世界中的预期成果是降低水平过境点的重大创伤水平，以及新的跨越升级公共政策。
